Girls who go back to their ex...

[KangarooInMalibu]

My friend says "girls who go back to their ex's are idiots".

What are your opinions on what they said?

[JoeDangit]

Depends.

If it's like Gwen Stacey and Peter Parker in the Amazing Spider Man 2, that's a perfectly good reason to get back together with your ex.

Just kidding.

But seriously, it depends on the situation.

[Karkat]

Like the person above me said, it really just depends.

I feel like there are perfectly legitimate reasons to do so, just like I feel there are perfectly legitimate reasons to be friends with your ex after a breakup. However, I think a good portion of the time, if there's a reason it didn't work before? It won't work this time around.

My girl broke up with me for a guy, twice...

[NiceGuyDave]

treat em mean keep em keen? apparently that's why girls go back. no seriously thou. its a comfort thing. i think that its fine to go back to your ex once... more than that, then you're a sucker for punishment. and start to realise why it didn't work the first time.

[queenofcontrariety]

DON'T DO IT, EVERRRRRRRR. I've made this mistake on multiple occasions, it's just horrible. If it didn't work once it probably can't be fixed.

[SethfromMI]

if the person is willing to change or if the couple is willing to workout their problems and differences and want to give it a second shot, then go for it. I would not stay in an abuse relationship though just to be in one

[ImagineRepublicCity]

Well, depends on the situation in which they broke up. If it was because one of them cheated on the other, then no, I extremely highly do not recommend doing so, but if they broke up because one of them were not ready to be in a relationship and could not handle the commitment and a couple of months later they did, I think that's fine.

Well what about this? Me & my girlfriend were doing just fine then one day some bitch comes along and tells her that I was trying stuff on with here which I wasn't and the night she is saying this about she was kissing my mate and sitting next to him the whole night. Then after it we were all drinking and everyone was pretty smashed. She tells my girlfriend that then she goes crazy and pushes me and starts hitting me like crazy so I kicked her in like a pushing motion to get her away from me, she falls, breaks her finger, which was a complete accident & everyone hates me for about 3 weeks and she gets back with me even though both her parents want me dead, her big brother is still being my mate. Do you think she is wrong to get back with me?

If one is cheating get as far away from them as possible, but if it's a seriously misunderstood situation or a complete accident ^^ and everything was working before, then why can't it work again?

[Daniella98]

The reason for the first brake up should suffice. But some girls get weak around some type of boys. Some boys get that too for some girls.
Its emotions which make people go back. So its not stupidity.

I consider my self kind of headstrong about not going back.

[Melodic]

I disagree actually. Every relationship is different. If you still trust and love the person and think it will work, I say go for it.

[NiceGuyDave]

well thats the important thing.. TRUST. but don't just simply go back to the person because its an easy option.

[Charlie48]

it's their choice and their life. i wouldn't interfere.

[CreativeUsername]

Everybody has their reasons for everything, and sometimes they have legitimate reasons to get back with an ex. My friends were dating for a while, and then they broke up. Now they're back together and the happiest couple I know

What are your opinions on what they said?

Depends. If you had a good relationship together but stuff happened then it makes sense. If your bf abused you/was mean to you and you go back to him, then ur an idiot.

[CosmicNoodle]

Like the person above me said, it really just depends.

I feel like there are perfectly legitimate reasons to do so, just like I feel there are perfectly legitimate reasons to be friends with your ex after a breakup. However, I think a good portion of the time, if there's a reason it didn't work before? It won't work this time around.

This^ Well said.

[ozteen]

Ex's are ex's for a reason. You should be going forward, not backwards!

[vittyvirus]

Do hell with such idiotic girls.

I once liked a girl but she didn't like me just because she was 'badly broken' by her ex, and is still in love with her

[Babs]

It depends.
Saying that they're all just idiots is a very narrow viewpoint, and a little ignorant also.
Sometimes people learn from their mistakes of previous relationships, and they've both matured more and are ready to try it, and if it's a healthy relationship then that's great.
Sometimes it's just stupid to go back with an ex, but again, it's their choice and not really my place to pass them off as idiots since I don't know what's going through their head when they go back to them.
No one here is guys who go back with their exes shit, so why girls?
